David Fincher Confirmed To Direct Brad Pitt’s World War Z Sequel

Director David Fincher will reunite with Brad Pitt on the sequel to ‘World War Z.’

Fincher, who previously worked with Pitt on ‘Fight Club’ and ‘The Curious Case of Benjamin Button,’ had long been rumoured to be the top choice to call the shots on the follow-up to the 2013 zombie epic. In April of this year, the director was said to be close to reaching a deal for the job, but nothing had been heard since.

However, it has now been confirmed by no less an authority than the recently appointed head of production at Paramount, Jim Gianopulos, who tells The Hollywood Reporter that the studio are “in advanced development” on the ‘World War Z’ sequel, with Fincher directing and Pitt starring.
